Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said on Saturday that stern action would be taken against those involved in Bandarban bank robberies and looting firearms of police and Ansar.

Asaduzzaman Khan said, “Law enforcers along with army and border guards will launch a crackdown against the criminals in the district from Saturday.”

“We will not let anything go unchallenged. We will find out who did this and who are linked with them,” Kamal said, adding that the culprits would be brought to light very soon.

The minister came up with the comments while talking to the reporters at the Ruma upazila complex after inspecting the Sonali Bank branch there on Saturday morning.

Asaduzzaman Khan went to Bandarban’s Ruma upazila by helicopter in the morning. Later, he visited Ansar Barrack, Mosque and Sonali Bank.
